Secondhand store opens in Warkworth

Generosity Corner will open its doors for the first time this week on Wednesday, August 4 at 7am. It is located on the former Mahu Community Trading Post site, corner of Whitaker Road and Mill Lane in Warkworth.

Managers Jo and John Bass will celebrate with customers by providing hot chocolate and cupcakes.

The couple say the community has already got behind the new store, and thanks to generous donations, there will be plenty of bargains to be had on opening day.

“The garage is completely full,” Jo says. They have recruited a team of 12 volunteers but would like to hear from anyone who could spare half a day to help out.

The proceeds of the store will go towards community causes. The store hours are Wednesdays 7am to 1pm, Thursday and Friday 9am to 5pm, and Saturday 9am to 1pm.
